Combine Editing Tools: Select / Move

Head_In_The_Clouds — Thu, 21 Nov 2024 19:15:52 GMT

Hello,

The team I'm on is currently messing around with subnetworks and editing with UN in ArcGIS Pro. We are coming from ArcGIS 10.8.1 and ArcFM. Would it be possible to have a Select tool that not only selects, but can also move a feature without having to click on the Move button in Modify Features pane?

There's going to be a lot of data clean up and testing to make sure everything is snapped appropriately. We test a lot of this by using the move tool. By combining these 2 tools, our clicks would be cut in half while we're in clean up mode.

Thanks!

Oh my gosh, yes, please. This is another great example of a simple but extremely important feature that was not ported into ArcGIS Pro from ArcMap. When you have teams performing edits, all the extra clicks and tool selects required by ArcGIS Pro really add up to a boatload of inefficiency.

This would be a great update for Pro. The number of extra clicks while editing has had a definite impact on the data maintenance side of things.
